Saturday
Thankfully, everywhere was dark
"No stopping" Alex said "We have to keep running. His men might be out here"
Even though all of us were still sad about what happened to Darcy and didn't want to leave her in an unknown land, we realized that we do not have an option but to listen to Alex.
After running for half an hour, we slowed down and started working normally.
I was looking at nowhere in particular when I saw something in the air, it was projecting our way, at Liam to be precise.
"Liam!" I called in horror and launched myself at him in order to push him down. The arrow hit a tree and Alex screamed "split up"
I rolled off of Liam instantly and we both got up. We ran in the same direction and came across about two hundred vampires. We were surrounded and there was no way we were winning against them.
My back was to Liam's and I could feel his anger

Alex asked with his thick voice.

I asked him when we entered our room"It's for the people we lost during the attacks" he replied"Oh!" I gasped and remembered Darcy and Tanner. They were the ones that rescued me when my parents house was attacked some weeks ago, but now they were no more."I hate losing people too" Alex said and brought me back to reality.I sighed heavily and said "Are you going in first?

30 DAYS TO HER BIRTHDAYSaturdaySomething was after me, I was sure of that but I couldn't see what it was since everything was pitch-black and the fact that the thing that was after me was getting closer was terrifying."Irene" I called myself and put in more effort "You're almost there. You're almost there"I tripped to the ground due to the long gown that I was putting on and yelped"You're almost there" I told myself again and struggled to get back up.My throat was dry and I could hardly swallow my saliva but that was just a tip of an iceberg when it comes to the problem that I was facing right now because I was sure that the thing after me was after me because it was sent to destroy me.I could feel it footsteps coming my way as I was struggling to get up and I knew the only way of I surviving this was if I reached my destination on time.I don't know where exactly I was going but I

If I counted the number of men that were in the hallway right, there were fifteen huge men there.I looked back at my captive and whispered to him "Go to them and tell them that the B-Lord is in trouble and they are needed" he nodded his head "You do this, you live.

He called again"Forever!""I want to introduce you to our friends here, they came from the other side of the world" we waved at them and they 'whoa' at us "All of us have given up hope. We thought everything was a lie, we thought they wouldn't make it here but just few days...just few days, they showed up. Welcome them once again!"He motioned to us to sit down and signaled to the singer to continue her music.The singer had a very beautiful voice but the song wouldn't make it in our side of the world.
